It was nice to see something that was so strongly a part of my mom’s childhood and have it remind me of when I was a kid reading similar books out loud to her. However, it must be mentioned that the way this book treats indigenous communities is horrendous, definitely did not age well. Overall, a book that has emotional meaning but lost points for the parts that aged poorly.
